Hadde vært fint med kjøleskap. Det ble litt slitsomt med nedlasting av apper og sende inn passbilder og annet i forveien. Til slutt endte det opp med en nøkkel i et skap på veggen som var like greit. Men hele prosessen rundt dette ble for omfattende og stressende. Det er mitt største ankepunkt, ellers var det bra.

Reviewed Oct 25, 2025Ich bin ja ein Freund von Self Check-Ins. Dieser war aber hier sehr umständlich und kompliziert. Die Einrichtung war okey. Keine Geräusche von draußen zu hören. Bett war bequem.
Das ist kein normales Hotel, sondern einzelne Zimmer in separaten Etagen eines Wohnhauses. Man braucht eine App, die als Schlüssel genutzt werden soll. Darüber wurde ich vorher nicht informiert. Wir standen dann draußen mit Gepäck im Regen und mussten erstmal den Service anrufen und das klären. Mitarbeiter gibt es keine vor Ort. Wenn man ein Parkhaus sucht, welches nicht Nachts, bis zum Morgen geschlossen hat, muss man ein ganzes Stück laufen. Das ist je nach Wetter sehr ungünstig, wenn man zeitig die Fähre schaffen muss. Auf den Sesseln, Sofa, Stühlen waren einige Flecken, die anscheinend nie gesäubert werden. Die Düsen des Duschkopfes waren schon weggegammelt.
